The comma is important, but not pronounced. Comfortably bad at posting. Seeking YΕ«gen through music. ,StS-approved underknown artists shared Thursdays (time will vary until skeets can be scheduled) Oh yeah, https://screamedthesniper.bandcamp.com/music

this might be a crazy idea but I think if we can't have a program that makes spreadsheet jobs marginally more efficient without also manufacturing csam on an industrial scale or driving people insane and convincing them they should kill their family, we shouldnt have that program

It is BECAUSE I understand how AI and LLMs work, intimately, that I have no interest in using them. Are there valid uses for LLM-adjacent technologies? Yes, but LLMs themselves are clearly a technological dead-end tech is trying to shove down our throats to recoup its oversized investment.

doc vivi hits the nail on the head here. im not a dummy. i know how computers work. i watched LLMs with interest as they emerged, i know enough about the math to get what's going on, and quickly became disillusioned with how oversold this garbage is. sorry kids, it IS "spicy autocomplete"

I literally worked on IBM's Watson and have zero interest in using LLMs for my work. Stop assuming we're all just ignorant. I know more about them than you do. I know more about them than 99% of people on this site do.

there's discourse about... spreadsheets? Really, spreadsheets? the thing you use to make the computer imps do your bidding? the summoning circle for math devils? the arcane sigil you or a skilled friend cast once to make your job easier forever? they're fine. damn

When I talk about my little music circle On Here IRL, I generally say something along the lines of "assorted queers who periodically release music that makes you hallucinate", & it's occurred to me that some of you might appreciate knowing that (don't worry cishets in the circle, ily as well)

Once you start seeing it through this lens, a remarkable proportion of books, op eds, features, even news pieces can be summarised as "why won't my darling child go back to how they were when they accepted my complete authority over them, before they self-actualised (and got QUEER)"

Lol the New York Times literally went from "being trans is self mutilation" to "cutting off your transphobic parents is self mutilation"
